Toshiba Enters Chromebook Game with $279 13-inch

The Chromebook space keeps expanding. Toshiba joins Acer in announcing a sub-$300 touchscreen Chromebook at CES this year. However, Toshiba’s 13.3-inch device carries a larger display than Acer’s 12-inch C720p, and the former’s price tag is lighter, $279 versus $299. Both screens offer an underwhelming 1366 x 768-pixel resolution, but at least there are standout points for design. The Toshiba Chromebook looks like the company’s Kirabook married a 13-inch Apple MacBook. Fixings such as port amenities and wireless capabilities are another plus, too.
